Lay a sheet of contact paper on the counter. Line up the edge of the paper with the back edge of the counter , where it meets the wall. Use masking tape to hold the paper in place. Doing a contact paper countertop makeover has been a popular way to inexpensively cover up an old ugly countertop. Granite contact paper is typically used as it resembles a real granite countertop and while if done well it looks awesome, this comes with a variety of inherent problems.
Here’s the granite contact paper I used in my kitchen. Five rolls was enough to cover all the counter tops , with enough left over to replace a few spots if needed. Last year, I shared how I used contact paper to cover and redo my ugly, old laminate countertops in my house for under $10.
I rent, so I did not want to put a lot of $ into this project or do anything that would cause any damage. Place the contact paper upside down on the counter so that, as you unroll it, the paper backing is facing up. Unroll the contact paper starting at one end of the counter. Make sure the end of the roll hangs down to the sides of the counter if you wish to cover the sides as well.
